  1. I don't really get this from an operational standpoint. Surely it takes about 5 minutes tops to go into a staff room and change a shirt. Or wear an MRT polo over the top of the existing shirt. What makes this more bizarre is that it's not even specific for each park. Surely it's not that hard and not that more expensive to make a MW/SW/WNW specific polo with the park logo instead of a generic Village one. Some rides are affected by this worse than others. Superman and Scooby are the big ones pointed out previously but Justice League, Storm & WWF can be added to the list. You can probably get away with it on Lantern, Rivals, JDS and most of the shows. LPS have specific operator shirts just for Big Dipper, I would like to imagine Village Roadshow who charge a triple digit sum for a day ticket would be of a similar standard.

  2. Thought this would be interesting. 7NEWS did a report tonight how Sea World does their safety checks on Leviathan. https://www.facebook.com/7NEWSBrisbane/videos/161828793507319 Some information to unpack there: Leviathan is the most high tech ride at the park Daily track inspections take around 5 hours and start from dawn Processes “are similar to what you would see in the aviation industry” 3 cycles are done to check speed etc. The data from the tests are sent to the engineers to determine if the ride is safe

  3. There used to be the single colour button up cotton shirts at WnW and MW that had "Warner Village Theme Parks" embroided on them, so maybe thats what they were recalling? That was the same era as sea world having the white polos with blue collars.

  4. You can take Storm off that list. They look exactly like a boat crew. Just add a "high vis emergency" vest and maybe a hard hat and its perfect.

  5. Even Gumbuya World in Melbourne have ride specific uniforms for TNT and Project Zero.

  6. Honestly don't mind the general new uniform/look in general but 100% think its a poor decision to take away specific themed ride uniforms, I think it detracts from the overall themed environment experience. Sure have uniform the same across front gate/retail/food and bev. But let the "Metropolis Rapid Transit" employee check my superman restraint. My understanding is Roxy is the only attraction that is retaining the "old" uniforms.

  7. Wasn't the new owner an investment company? If that's true, these are expenditure cuts to increase profits (probably explains the poor appearance of the park too)

  8. Also a good idea to credit the photo owner.
